These few days were fantastic, slumber-inducing days. The weather was constantly changing - from sunny to pouring cats and dogs. Not that I am complaining. But I just pray hard that when I have classes, the rain don't come so abruptly and wetting me from inside out.
About the Part 2 of the tag, there will be a delay. I am pretty busy. But I will definitely, definitely do it.
And guess what have I recently adopted?

I made one minor blunder, my laptop's Windows got corrupted. I am uber frustrated over myself. The laptop's in Ipoh now. A friend wanted to go home, and she brought it home to my brother for me. Then my iPod gave up on me. I was doing some reading with my ears plugged onto it, then suddenly it just shuts itself down with a very cute image on it.

Sigh. I don't like that sad face. Then I tried to restart it again by pressing the Menu and Play button simultaneously for a few seconds. That didn't work, and it leaves me with the option of reformatting it with the Menu button and the centre button. But I didn't have the heart. I <3 all my songs in there.
I just left it the way it is for the whole night.

After I woke up, I tried to get some other assistance from Apple Support. Even they said that reformatting it was the only option. So I had to do it.
Then I was left with an iPod with a blinking message in multiple languages asking me to restore it with iTunes.


Downloading the latest software in iTunes is taking centuries. Bah. Now I am left with two unused iPods.

One who has a memory equivalent as a newborn baby.
One with backdated CSI:Miami series and no songs.
:cries:
--------------------
Back to my 25 random things:
#16 - I would choose to be scorching hot, than freezing cold. At any cost.
#17 - I love doing origami. Especially those practical ones which serves a purpose, and not just for aesthetic reasons. And also a tendency in making them in mass.
#18 - I have a underlying talent in creating a mess wherever I go and the best part is that I can find my things easier in messes rather than tidy arrangements. But then, I am no longer a messy person. I have changed. It is just a cliche, lol.
#19 - I would prefer guys to talk to me in English, rather than those who babble in Mandarin, like the ones here in UTHM. It would be such an ideal place for me! Nothing is perfect. But but but, I also have to add, there are loads of Mandarin-speaking nice guys that I know. No pun intended!
#20 - I enjoy being seen as an independent girl/woman/person, and not one of those clingy girls.
/rant starts here/ Why does guys prefer clingy girls over girls like me?! /rant ends here/
#21 - Shoes that looks good which kills my ever-walking feet, I will buy. Comfort shoes which will let me travel a thousand miles with grandma feet, hell no!
#22 - I have inherited this genetic trait from my Dad in which will prompt impulsive buying in me if I like something, and this liking comes seasonally in particular items. No joke.
#23 - I have never regretted applying into this university, regardless of what people think of this place.
#24 - Part of the reason on why I started blogging 3 years ago was because I wanted to be heard.
#25 - I had never gotten on a serious relationship. I had flings, but not serious ones. I just want one serious relationship in my lifetime if it's ever possible. (=

I won't call myself a genius, for being a know-it-all in almost everything. All I believed in is just to do my very best in whatever I would pursue, or just simply finish it the work up to my own expectations. So, most of the times, the work that I produce would appear to be out of the ordinary, something that other people can never produce. I am not saying that I am very creative. But let's just say that I have a very weird habit of producing things which would stand out from the others, and making it ultimately different.
Today, I found out that someone has been leeching my efforts in assignments, and lab reports. I have expected her to do it. But I never thought that it would be this despicable.
I am very much disapointed, and even more frustrated. Immeasurable frustration. I could tolerate it more if she were to ask me, and I were to give her reluctantly. I just can never say no to people. But at least I will swallow the frustration and try to leech something back from that person in return. But much too often, I can never leech from others. Why? Because I cannot tolerate their apathetic quality of work.
My blood is really boiling. I have done so much to ensure that this kind of plagiarism were not to happen to me again. I have also forewarned those particular people. They know that I don't lend them completed assignments or reports to "refer" to. And yet, this were to happen to me. Done by the person whom I believed to have understood me the most here.
Call it frustration. Call it betrayal. It must have been a blessing in disguise that my laptop has got to be sent back at this time. I just called the brother to ask him to set a password during the booting up of the system. This is the least I can do to prevent idiotic leeches to milk me more.
If people like you reads this, I hope you will somehow reach this acknowledgement of fact that people like me hates people like you. You have undermined me. You will regret it.

A picture like this makes me smile any day.

Form Six. One of those times in my life which I can never forget.

What makes you smile? I would like to know. Put up a picture in an entry in your blog, and give me a link of that entry. Too bad if you can't find any suitable pictures. I guess you must have missed out on a lot of things.

I caught her lying again to me, and of course, about the same issue.
There was yet another lab report to be completed yesterday, as it was due today. I had two tests yesterday. And the weekend was rather hectic, having myself stuck in the hostel. Namely because I was busy, for one, and another thing is that the heavy downpour swells as it gets longer and only subsides after 2 or 3 hours.
I was already down with sore throat, and the aftermath of that has to be the flu - and I was never wrong. And indeed, yesterday, the flu bug struck me. And Avinesh was one of those who has to mention my name incessantly. I am not a staunch believer of paracetamol in helping my fever to subside over the night. So, I braved my day of sore throat, flu and fever without medication.
Amidst the soreness, and the feverish head I had, I know that I could only turn in early after I had officially completed my lab report. So, after my second test of the day, I went back straight to hostel. Took my bath - haven't had one which includes washing of hair for the day. Yea yea, don't think about giving me the why-bathe-at-that-hour-especially-when-you-have-fever nag. I know how to be responsible over myself, worry not.
And I forgot to mention that I got a slight diarrhea which had to be an IBS - caused by the upcoming period. Partnered with excruciating pain.
All in all, yesterday was a total misery. And I had no one to whine to. Happy enough to get a call from home. But of course, I skipped out on all details. Why worry them over a little flu?
Then after the bath, the visits to the toilet, I finally settled down on my study desk at 2300 and started working on my lab report, right from scratch. And while I was working my sick arse off in hyper mode, my friend was sitting next to me, making and receiving calls from people and apparently, she was very busy dealing with some irrelevant issues. After all the unneccesary agendas, she plugged in her earphones and started poring over HK drama.
*rolls eyes*
And when I completed, it was already 0015. I immediately lugged out my printer, printed my assignment, binded it, kept it in my file, made myself a hot chocolate to soothe the irate tummy, and got out Labels to calm myself down from a day's worth of hecticness before I could turn in.
That's when the friend came up to me. "Hey, you have finished the report already?". And I said, "Yea."
"Wow. You're quick! Can I see it?"
*dugs my file* *passed her the printed copy*
"Whoa. You're very quick! So efficient!"
"If you have been doing your reports on your own, it wouldn't be a problem ito finish it quick."
Here comes the best bit: "I did do my own report, but I guess I won't be that quick."
She said that she did her own report. She just had to lie through her own eyelids. I couldn't stand her easy-mindedness in lying to people like that. And the other day, we (housemates) were making jokes about people with blatant innocence and those pretentious sort. And she made a statement rather nonchalantly, "Yea, don't you all know I have been pretentious all along?"
To her, it was meant as a joke. But to me, it was almost as if to be a confession of her true character.
So here comes a thought. How long can I continue being a hypocrite in this, what people call as, friendship?

I was trying if my link works on the previous post. Since I am bounded by UTHM's proxy, there are certain websites which we cannot access.
But I find this rather irrational.

So hey, have you seen any pornographic elements in chenyeng2706.tabulas.com before?

I had the jitters, the first one. I felt the exhilaration. I had once wondered if my feelings ever did matter. Heck, I had even wondered if it is ever real.
Sometimes when I think back, all of it felt like self-induced infatuation, the mind messed by the hormones that sort of thing. And it makes me feel silly being vulnerable at that time.
And finally, after several painstaking months, I decided that it was time to move on.
I did. Or so I thought.
Something popped up, just a couple of hours ago. And I had to be there to witness it. The whole agenda caught me, made me all confused and fuzzy inside.
What did I do to myself? Did I make the right choice? I doubt the decision I made.
I need someone to sit beside me and talk to me. I need to talk. I need to clear my head.
But I guess, at this hour, all I have is just myself.

Birthdays here are always done in this tone which spells boringness and predictability. What we (usually) do is that on the birthday eve, we buy a birthday cake, we bring it back to the college, head to the college's cafeteria and keep it cool in one of the refrigerators there. Then before the clock strikes midnight, someone heads back to the cafeteria, bring up the cake, we sneak up on the birthday girl, *peek-a-boo*, we sing a happy-birthday song, make her to say her wishes out loud, and eat up the cake. Then we call it a night.
On days which we have more free time in our hands, we would head out to a restaurant, or just our everyday KFC for a treat and also the must-have cake.
This is the second semester of our second year. I think we have had enough of sneaking-ups on birthday girls.
The lucky girl this year had a treat lined up. The day started on 1400 when we head out to Batu Pahat town for lunch (or brunch for most of us), and we went for the best pan-meen in town. It isn't the best I have had, but it is the best in BP town. Lol. Catch the words.
There were a lot of draggy events which took place between taking off from our college, to the meet-up place for lunch. Details omitted, it is negligible.
We had lunch, and by 1500-plus, we started our roadtrip in two cars to Segenting in Batu Pahat, a place of tourist's attraction in this town, where you can touch a fortune fish which supposedly brings you fortune in the shape of lotteries and windfalls. It's all hearsay. I have touched the fish for three different events within 18 months. Where's my windfall?!
I drove one car (manual transmission, yay!) and a friend took over another (automatic transmission, boo!) and we went uphill to Segenting. I had to take the lead because I fulfilled two conditions - (i) I can drive, and; (ii) I know how to get to Segenting.
It has been a while since I drove an MT car, so you can imagine the relieve I had when I drove an MT through a very slope-y road. Think Cameron roads, but it takes only one third of the time. The AT car practically trotted all through the journey. Lol.
Since I had the lead, I arrived at the turning which is compulsory to take to go into Segenting. So I parked the car at the shoulder of the road and waited for the other car to reach - in case they missed the turning. After waiting for about 5 minutes, the other car drove past the turning, without even realising that we were parked there. After making a call, and much confusion in between, I finally had to swerve over, back to the main road and go all the way down the road to reach Pantai Minyak Beku, which was obviously not the destination.
Seriously, when girls go for roadtrips, although they might get lost, etc, they will also find some sort of fun / excitement / activity like camwhoring. When I reached up to them, the other group was already taking pictures of everything and everyone. =_=!

And in that very short diversion we had, the amount of pictures taken was 41.
Then we took a U-turn, and continued our journey to Segenting.
We arrived in a jiffy, and then there were a tour bus parked right outside. Then we got worried because we don't want to get packed like sardines. Thankfully enough, the crowd was timely enough to be leaving.
This is how the fortune fish looks like ...

It's super duper big, and there are two of them. So the procedure is as such where you are to stroke the fish from its head to its tail. But of course, you can also see lottery fanatics man-handling the fishes by grabbing its head and talking to it - hoping that by doing this short-term torture to the fish, he/she could be granted with millions and millions of cash. Hello? If I'm that fish, by grabbing me at the head and shaking me like that, what makes you think I would give you a shitload of cash?! Common sense, please?
Anyways, we hung around the fish pond for quite some time, hoping that these weirdo fanatics were to go away soon enough so that we could humanely stroke the fishes - some of them have never touched the fishes before. However so, the man/lady thinks that by dominating the stroking (read: torturing) the fish, he/she could be much richer, so that zilched our chances of touching any fishes for that day.
Okay-lah, maybe some of us did touch the fish for an itsy-bitsy bit. But it's so not fair having someone hog the best place at the pond.
We decided not to waste our time further and we adjourned to the various places in the area for more pictures.

After snapping about 70+ pictures, we finally got tired. The good pictures were finalised and we have 58 of them.
So pictures were totalled to 99 taken from 1658 to 1803, in just a mere hour. Lesson for guys to learn - never let a camera fall into a girl's hands.
Then I drove everyone into frustration, making them wait for the sunset. The view is spectacular and there's no reason we should leave without witnessing it.
When it was about 1900, I led the gang to the Lover's Bridge, qing-ren-qiao, which is somewhat like a small jetty-like pathway. And another picture-snapping frenzy took place.

Look at the horizon!

The birthday girl


And the compulsory group pictures with rotating cameramen ...

And here we are, the ones living in The City of The Lonely - inside joke.
(some are missing)
We adjourned downhill, back to Batu Pahat town, and headed for our steamboat dinner.
We went to Ah Fei Steamboat - which is just located opposite The Summit. The food was okay-lah, minus some commotion that happened during our dinner. And of course, it was caused by someone in our group. At first it wasn't pleasant because we were supposed to be all happy and merry celebrating someone's birthday. But then, the commotion earned us on a 10% discount on all ala-carte. Yay!

The other side of the table

Waiting for food

Me and my partner-in-crime for the night's steamboat.
One chicken set, one seafood set, one clear soup, one tomyam, one squid platter,
one platter of quail's eggs, and more lettuce.

She is (obviously) very happy. Look at her food!

One last one before we start eating

The bill came up to RM147.62 for 9 person. Review ...
Next, we went to fetch our cake while the other car went over to Carrefour for a short diversion. Then we met up at Dataran Batu Pahat for a different kind of birthday ritual.

[Clockwise from knife] 2 slices of Chocolate Indulgence, 2 slices of New York Cheese Cake,
2 slices of Hi-Fibre Cheese Cake, 2 slices of Oreo Cheese Cake, 2 slices of Cappucino Cheese Cake.
[more details omitted here which involves parking lot hunting,
trampling a distance to buy a lighter, waiting for the arrival of the other car]
The birthday girl arrives and was pleasantly surprised ...

Then it was time to open the present. She was quizzed, thinking what could be in the huge box. Little did she know that we gave her a care package.

The box contains all of her favourite foodstuff - namely digestive biscuits, oats, Milo, wholemeal bread, etc.
She exclaimed, "This is the most unique birthday present that I had ever received in my 22 years!"

The night ended in a rush hour to beat the curfew at our college at 12-midnight. We arrived safely at 2355, and escaped thorough questionings with a graze. Phew~
The whole outing must have been amazingly splendid because the birthday girl couldn't sleep until it was past 0400. She usually sleep around 10.00 pm to 11.30 pm, so that's very unexpected, right?
The whole day was indeed fun. We all had the mobility and the time, the less fortunate part was that our pockets have limits. Otherwise, the night wouldn't end like this. We might even spend the night in a room together in a nearby hotel, having the night's worth of pillow talks.
She made a wish - she hoped that all of us will stay this close as friends, forever. I find that touching. I never knew that Suing was ever that sentimental towards friends. She has always been the simple, girl-next-door, having no demands, being a very easily contented girl. I thought she is the kind of person who would be perfectly fine without any (close) friends. The wish she made, well, it made me feel that the activities that we planned out for her, was definitely worth it. And it has indeed brought us all closer.
Happy 22nd, Suing!

All I did was just to check my email in one of the desktop computers in one of UTHM's computer labs. Obviously, these computers are all super-duperly infected with all sorts of worms, viruses and bugs. And what I least expected is the keylogger software.
It has been an annoying month whereby friends in my contact list have been asking me about the spam / spim messages that they have been receiving from me. If someone were to have listened to me a month ago, and helped me changed the password of my MSN account, all the headaches would have been relieved from me earlier. Sheesh.
Lose weight with some supplement-lah, viewing pictures of themselves in this particular album-lah. Honestly, I don't understand why some people would even think that the messages was sent by me.
So anyways, the common sense in stopping this nuisance is obviously to reset the password of the MSN account.
Anyone of you facing the same problem, do the same. Seriously, UTHM's technicians ought to be working harder and quit sleeping on your jobs. Literally sleeping.

I have had numerous small pets and whether you like it or not, small pets have shorter lifespan. The emotional rollercoaster that I set myself in when I get these small pets and eventually losing them was getting on to me really badly and I told myself that it was time to stop falling for small animals. What am I supposed to do when I have too much love and compassion in me?
When XiaoXiao was brought back, I was thrilled. It has been a while since my last hamster died (of natural illness, not from torture) and I was happy to keep another small pet. But, the ringing alarm in my head told me not to be too attached it to. I know why and you should know why.
Little did we know (or ever thought of), XiaoXiao died on a Friday afternoon, 27th of March 2009, at about 1352.
I have very alert ears and when I heard gasping and exclamations coming from the living room that noon (I was sleeping, okay?), I jumped up immediately and saw the poor thing curling and twisting itself as if some invisible pin was poking all over its body. We all knew it was time. Some of the got away from it because they could not face Death making its due over XiaoXiao. I chanted some mantra to liberate the poor thing from its sufferings, and hoping that I could ease the pain.
After the 7th set of the mantra, XiaoXiao started to ease its struggle, and slowly passed on.
It had been just a little over a month, 24th of February till 27th of March 2009. I guess the small thing was never meant for the outside world. It never dared to spread its wings to fly. But I bet XiaoXiao can be flying now. =)

Goodbye XiaoXiao

Just when I thought things had subsided, now it has resurfaced.
There could be numerous titles she could have picked. I don't understand why it had to coincide with mine. The funniest part is that the very words consisted in her title almost danced of plagiarism of my work.
When I asked her through IM about this, she got all defensive and said that she started her work before I did and there was no way that it could be her copying my work. So, does that mean I stooped that low to copy yours instead?
This is not the first time, friend. Just when I thought I could be the grown-up one, and walk away from this, you just do kick up the dirt. All I want to have is just some form of exclusivity in my work and that is not too much to ask. You don't have to copy in the means of taking a copy of someone's work and merely changing some things in its contents and later submitting it. Copying can be just eavesdropping what others muttered through their mouths and assuming their ideas!
You committed the latter!
I am in such fury that I could not even blog about this on my own table in the living room! I had to lock myself in the room (and locking my roommate out of it as well, lol) and blog without anybody present around me. The fury contained in me practically burns my guts, and her kind of attitude revolts me all over, inside out.
How am I gonna live my life here for another 1.5 years?! I just don't know how to put up a face anymore. Is there still any worth of such friendship? My conscience inside is sceaming till its lungs blew out and yet I could still be the one giving her chances. Fuck everything there is. She is such a disappointment, seriously.
Please, don't tell me it's a coincidence. In life, there are too much coincidences that have shadowed evil intentions. If you insist that it is so, all I could say is that there had to be some retardation in my brain which has somewhat degraded my intelligence to actually create a work from scratch which had eventually coincided with yours. In this case, I will excuse myself to the nearest mirror and yell to that reflection.
